2014 Toyota Yaris 1.5L Hybrid electric · RO64 AAJ

The 2014 Toyota Yaris remains roadworthy based on its most recent MOT, conducted on 2025-09-15 at 93,913 miles, which recorded no defects. The vehicle’s maintenance trend shows stability, with no recurring issues flagged across its last four tests. A failed MOT on 2024-09-16 at the same mileage as the subsequent passing test on 2024-09-17 suggests a possible administrative error or minor unresolved fault, though no defects were logged. The absence of advisories or failures in the 2023 and 2022 tests indicates consistent compliance with safety standards. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging 7,826 miles annually. The MOTs were conducted at regular 12-month intervals, with no significant gaps between tests. The 2024-09-16 failure at 88,750 miles, coinciding with the same date as a passing test, raises questions about procedural accuracy but does not indicate mechanical decline. The vehicle’s mileage and testing frequency suggest routine maintenance, though no evidence of proactive servicing or component replacements is present. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, common wear points in older Yaris models, and check for brake disc warping or caliper binding, which may not trigger MOT failures. Corrosion on the underbody or exhaust system warrants scrutiny, as does the condition of tyres, given the lack of recorded tread depth checks. While the MOT history shows no critical faults, the absence of detailed service records means potential hidden issues in non-MOT-covered components remain unverified.
